At Tails' house in Emerald Town…

Cream's POV

After getting the chaos emeralds and a restraining order from Knuckles; we were on our way back to Emerald Town, to take a break and for Tails to get started on the reincarnation process. Just as I was setting the table for lunch, the door bell rang.

"I'll get it!" I said as I skipped to the door. Cosmo was feeding Sonic and Amy and kept trying to keep the mixed breed chao from biting off Amy's head. I sighed and opened it to see, a human, with brown hair…wait no she was a hedgehog. She had pale skin and yellow eyes…and she had a scar over her eye in the shape of a lightning bolt.

"Can I help you miss?" I asked kindly. It wasn't in my nature to not be polite; even to a stranger.

"Uh…I was wondering if my two chao could play with your chao!" The hedgehog said, while grinning sheepishly.

"I don't have a problem with it, but I'll have to ask Tails first."

"Um oka-" She said as I shut the door in her face, before running to get Tails. Oh, I thought, I forgot to tell her to wait. I opened the door again.

"Wait here please." I said.

"If it's a problem then I'll leave-" She said as I closed the door and ran to Tails' lab.

Tails had put an underground lab inside his house, and there was no elevator. So it took me quite a while to get down there. When I finally did get down there, Tails was taking two heart shaped fruits and was injecting something into them.

"Tails, someone wants their chao to play with Sonic, Amy and Zombie. Should I let them in?" I asked him, trying not to interrupt his work.

"Yeah, yeah, sure. Oh! Could you bring Zombie down here please? I need him for something." Tails said as he waved his hand. I ran back upstairs, where I hoped that nice hedgehog was still waiting. I opened the door, to where the hedgehog was standing.

"Okay Miss, Tails said that you can come in! May I ask what your name is?" I said as she walked inside.

"My name's Storm! These are my two chao…uh…Kitsune and Starry! Kitsune and Starry were…at the chao garden when Amy and Zombie where there and they became good friends. These little guys have been bugging me to visit you guys so they could come over to play." Storm said as she kept looking up to the left. Both chao however had question marks appear over their heads. I didn't pay much attention to it though.

"Well you can put Kitsune and Starry down here! You're just in time, we were just going to have lunch! Cosmo, why don't you get Tails and tell him that lunch is ready? You can bring Zombie down with you, since Tails needs him for something. Cheese and I will get the table ready!" I told the Seedrian, who was now trying to put a muzzle on Zombie.

"Okay then." Cosmo said as she headed for Tails lab with the mixed breed chao in her hands. Maybe Tails' will tell her how he feels when she goes to get him for lunch. I thought. It wasn't much of a plan but Tails was so shy, he just needed a little extra push.

As the hedgehog put the chao down she followed Cheese and I into the kitchen, where I started to make sandwiches and Cheese started to fix the table.

Sonic's POV

As soon as that weird hedgehog lady put those two chao down, I instantly felt something wrong about them.

"Who are you guys?" Amy asked them. "We didn't see you at the chao garden."

"Yeah. I would've have remembered a chao like you." I said to the funny looking chao. She was a hero chao with a fox like tail. She had purple and white feet and arms and a pink chest area similar to Tails. This chao also had a pink halo, blue wings, two purple feather thingies on its head that went backwards and a muzzle like face. "'Cause you look a lot a pink Tails…well expect for the fact that Tails has two tails instead of one, but that's it…"

The funny looking chao glared at me.

"For your information, I am not a copy of Tails! My name is Kitsune!" The chao shrieked.

"Isn't Kitsune another name for fox Tails?" I teased. She just got angrier. The second chao, who looked a lot like a unicorn tried to hold her back.

"Stop it Kitsune! We have a job to do, remember!" the chao said in an attempt to calm her down.

"ARGH!" Kitsune, threw the chao off of her and pulled out her paintball gun.

"Kitsune NO!" The male chao shrieked, as he and Amy ran for cover (or kinda crawled since they're not that fast.) Kitsune however was trying to hit me with her paintball gun.

"Stay still, you…chao!" Kitsune shouted as I dodged as quickly as I could. It was a good thing that Tails gave me a whole bunch of green chaos drives or else I would've been splattered.

"Nya nya! You missed me, you Tails wannna be!" I taunted at her as I stuck out my tongue and blew a long raspberry at her. That did it. Kitsune then threw a wrench at my head. It hit me face on and I fell.

"SONIC!" Amy said, now running to the chao that had hit me in the face.

"Ow…that's gonna hurt in the morning…" I mumbled as I sat there dazed as little birdies flew around my face. Amy however ran out to Kitsune her hammer ablaze. Too bad Tails also gave her a whole bunch of red chaos drives, because that made her really strong. The poor chao wouldn't know what hit her.

SMACK! Amy hit her across the stomach.

"AHH!" Kitsune shouted as she crashed into the wall.

"Kitsune!" The other chao shouted as he ran (or crawled, whatever you prefer.) to the fallen chao. "You idiot! You're not supposed to fight them!"

"But Starry…he started it…he said that I was like Tails, and you know that Tails is Ralph's favorite character…" Kitsune muttered as she got back up. Starry sighed. Amy also helped me up.

"Sonic! Are you okay!" Amy said as she smothered me with hugs. The weird thing was that I didn't push her away.

"I'm fine. I'm just surprised that Cream and that other lady didn't come out to see what the fuss was all about. I'm sure that we were making a lot of noise." I said. What I didn't know was that Storm was actually on a secret mission for Dr. Eggman and she needed to make up a distraction so that she could steal Amy and Zombie. And what I didn't know was that she had poured water inside an electric toaster on purpose, and what I didn't know was that water and electricity really don't mix.

~~~***~~~~***~~~***~~~~
Meanwhile in Tails' Lab…
~~~***~~~~***~~~***~~~~

Tails' POV

"Hey Tails." I heard a familiar voice say, as she came down into my lab.

"Hi Cosmo," I said without looking up from my work.

"Cream, just told me to tell you that lunch is ready. Here." Cosmo said as she handed me Zombie. "She also told me that you wanted Zombie for something."

"Thanks! Now all I need is a blood sample from Zombie and then I can duplicate it, so I can put it into these two fruits that I found!" I said eagerly.

"Why do you need to put them into fruits Tails?" Cosmo asked her fox friend.

"Well, that way Sonic and Amy can eat it, get the cure into their system and their bodies will do the rest!" I said. "Do you want to help me?"

"Sure!" the green Seedrian said.

"Okay then. First we have to strap Zombie to that table." I said. Cosmo then picked up Zombie. Together with both of our strength we got the squirming chao on the table and straped in so that he wouldn't move.

"Next we get a blood sample." I said as I eerily held up a long needle. Cosmo shuddered. Zombie however took one glance at that and started screaming.

"Tails! What do we do?" Cosmo said, as she started getting nervous.

"I gotta take a blood sample! He's probably freaked out! Distract him!" I told the Seedrian.

"Um…uh…" She picked up a picture of Sonic and Amy. "Look Zombie, its Sonic." She said, in an attempt to make Zombie focus on the picture. Too bad Zombie was way smarter than that and kept screaming and squirming.

"Cosmo! Keep him focused on something else! I need to get a clear shot!" I said, as I tried to force the needle in, once more to no avail. Cosmo then found a banjo, leaning up against the wall. The plant tried strumming the strings. Zombie quieted down for a second. The chao like banjos.

"Good, Cosmo, just keep on playing…" I said as I pricked Zombie's skin with the needle. That however was enough to set Zombie off again. Cosmo dropped the banjo. She kept running around, trying to find something that would keep Zombie occupied. Then she saw the fruit.

"Tails! Maybe Zombie will calm down if we give him something to eat!" She said.

"Its worth a try!" I said back. Just as she was in reach of it, she tripped on the banjo.

"Cosmo! Watch out!" I said as I tried to catch her. The rest was a blur. I fell. She fell. Our lips touched. A spark. A warm tingly feeling in my chest. As Zombie saw us fall, he stopped screaming.

"Tails are you alright?" Cosmo asked me as she tried to help me up.

"C-Cosmo…" I stuttered, in disbelief of what just happened. "D-did we, j-j-just k-kiss?"

Cosmo now blushed as red as the roses on the side of her head.

"Uh…I-I think so…" Cosmo mumbled.

"C-Cosmo I have something to tell you…I've been meaning to tell it to you ever since we fell into that trap together…I-I-I-I L-l-" Just as I was about to confess my feeling to her, the fire alarms went off.

"What the…?" I said as I undid Zombie who started screaming again; and raced up the stairs, with Cosmo behind me. When I got up there, I saw, Sonic covered in paint, Amy with her hammer out, a chao holding a paintball gun and another chao that looked a lot like a unicorn helping the chao with the paintball gun up.

My attention quickly focused to the kitchen, where smoke seemed to be coming out of. I saw Cheese fly out of the smoke.

"Chao chao chao chao chao!" Cheese said frantically as he waved his hands around.

"Cosmo, take the chao and get out of here!" I said to the Seedrian. She grabbed up the chao quickly and ran out of the door. I ran into the kitchen where Cream and a female hedgehog were huddled in a corner the farthest away from the flames.

"All I wanted was some toast!" The hedgehog wailed. Cream was also in tears. I found the fire extinguisher and sprayed the foam onto the flames, instantly putting them out. The hedgehog scrambled out of the room, but my attention was mostly on Cream who was in tears.

"Cream!" I said as I carried the bunny out of the house. Cosmo and the chao were on the grass, but the hedgehog was missing. I put Cream down as I made sure that everyone was there. Cream, Cosmo, Sonic, Amy, and Zombie. The two chao before, were also gone, but I assumed that they left with their owner. I turned back to Cream, who was sitting next to Cosmo telling her how the kitchen was set on fire with occasion 'comments' from Cheese.

"-and she put water in the toaster…" Cream stopped as she noticed that I was walking towards her.

"Tails! Thank you for saving me! I didn't know what I would do!" Cream cried as she hugged me.

"No problem Cream! Now what do you say to eating out for lunch today?" I asked the girls.

~~~***~~~~***~~~***~~~~***~~~***~~~~***~~~***~~~~
After lunch at a Chilidog stand much to Sonic's delight…
~~~***~~~~***~~~***~~~~***~~~***~~~~***~~~***~~~~

As we were going home, Cream watched over Sonic and Amy as Cosmo and I took Zombie downstairs to the lab, to get the blood sample. Surprisingly, Zombie didn't make a fuss and we easily got the blood from the chao. As we worked there was an eerie silence between us. Finally I injected the cure into the fruit.

"Yes! We're finished! Now all we have to do is give this to Sonic and Amy and their bodies will do the rest." I exclaimed, as I turned to Cosmo who was as red as a beet. Finally she said something.

"Tails…do you…like me?" Instantly I blushed redder than Cosmo.

"I don't like you Cosmo…because…I-I love you." Those words slipped out. Cosmo looked at me, before she ran and hugged me.

"Oh Tails!" she said, as we stayed like that for the longest time.

There! I hope this chapter was good!

The puzzle from the last chapter was actually made up of two parts. The last chapter was the first part, but since you need to know the answer from that puzzle to answer this puzzle I'll give it to you ^^

Eggman got the red chao, Shadow got the orange chao, Tails got the yellow chao, Sonic got the green chao, Knuckles got the blue chao and Rouge got the purple chao. Here's part two to the puzzle from the Puzzle Master!

9. Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles have good alignments (Hero). The rest have bad alignments (Dark).

10. A chao, if treated kindly, will match the treator's alignment. If treated badly, a chao will be the opposite of the treator's alignment. The treat that takes place is the last treatment done to a chao. If not treated at all, the chao will remain Neutral. All the following clues happened in order.

11. Red chao and yellow chao were treated badly by the owner of one of them.

12. Orange chao, green chao, and blue chao were nearly killed by the owner of one of them.

13. Tails and Sonic healed their chao.

14. Rouge kidnapped two of five chao (not counting her chao, this is a bad treatment).

15. Shadow Chaos Speared Rouge to kidnap his chao.

16. Eggman launched an attack to Sonic and co, harming Rouge's chao and the other kidnapped chao. Sonic Spindashed Eggman, harming only one of the two chao.

17. At the end, no chao is Neutral. Only one chao matched its owner's alignment, the chao has the same color as its owner.

Chao for now!
